480 The power of the harem

Such an arrangement is certainly not accidental. The power of the harem www.biquge.info Pen, Fun, and Pavilion is powerful, and several of the Governor's wives have studied all of them before the Sword and Rose have arrived, and many potential stocks have been circled from them.

Among them, Dietrie was obviously unable to climb high and was ruthlessly abandoned. Isaac became the first candidate for the son-in-law, and others such as Mark and Lear, who were only barons and viscounts, but whose families were well-known, were also listed as second choices. Although Duchamp was born completely out of the stream, under Scott's strong recommendation, this scholar, who had a car and a house and both parents died, was also recognized by the wife group and recommended to his daughters according to this plan.

However, although the plan was good, it could not keep up with the rapid change, and Olivier Langheim, a wandering bard from the imperial capital, immediately grabbed a seat next to Shirley as soon as she got into the car, and quickly chatted and laughed with her.

Shirley, the daughter of the Governor and a beautiful native of the region, was born into a delicate and well-behaved beauty, and with the bard's rhetoric, she soon forgot her duty to raid Isaac and happily served as a volunteer guide for Olivier.

And Aurora sat in a car with Duchamp according to the plan, however, Duchamp's car is usually with the other three friends, Duchamp, an unrefined guy, ran to the front row at the beginning, happily sat with the coachman, and Dietrie modestly sat in the back, so that Aurora's side became Limmour, and Limmon did not let go of this opportunity at all, and immediately monopolized the opportunity to talk to the beauty, and ruthlessly left the other three friends aside.

With such a change, the plan was completely disrupted.

However, for Scott, it is the same to be anyone's brother-in-law, and he seriously carried out his work as a tour guide, first taking everyone to visit the castle and its ancillary facilities.

The castle was built 120 years ago as a military fortress funded by the Empire after Eastern Gnavado became an Imperial colony.

According to Scott, the Eastern Gnavador archipelago has historically been plagued by piracy. Although Ahti built the walls and erected forts on the high ground behind the harbor, it was not enough to ensure the safety of the city and its inhabitants.

Historically, whenever pirates besieged the city, the inhabitants of the castle had taken refuge in the castle, with enough space for 10,000 people to hide in the hills, as well as plenty of food and water.

120 years ago, there were frequent pirate sieges in Ahti, but it was 30 years ago that the fort was finally used as a refuge.

After more than 100 years of development, the city of Ahti has also become a city of 50,000 inhabitants, and near the Salmi Sea Road, a military port and military camp have been built, and there are 3,000 navies and a formed naval fleet.

With the strength of the empire, especially in recent years, after the West Sea Fleet was armed with high-speed cruisers, the pirates hovering in the Eastern Gnavador Islands have basically fled to the south of the mainland.

In its free time, the lower part of the fort was not deserted, but served as a storehouse of food and spare supplies for the city, which was used and managed all the time.

After visiting the castle, Scott led the group to visit the large market in the civic area, which has all kinds of strange things, such as ornaments made of glowing shells and pearls fished from the sea, various handicrafts of the islanders, various textiles transported from the mainland, and various sea creatures that can be kept as pets.

Duchamp remembered that he had not replenished small gifts for a long time, and he frantically scavenged through the market, buying a large number of fancy and cheap shell necklaces, island woven shawls, pearl ornaments, which he was going to use to coax the children later, and bought two new fishing rods.

When Scott saw him buying pearls here, he hurriedly ran over to tell him that the best pearls, corals, and marine gems on the island were in the shops at the Doge's Palace. Duchamp immediately said that he could visit and buy again.

Olivier bought a set of handmade tambourine at the market and played with curiosity. Learmour and Duchamp had exactly the same idea, buying a lot of big shells and other things to bluff children. As for those strange marine pets, it's not that he doesn't want them, he just finds them inconvenient to carry. Others, to a greater or lesser extent, brought some gifts to their families.

After visiting the big market, Scott actually led everyone to continue down.

Several of the girls frowned and screamed, 'No! ’

"Scott, are you going to take everyone to the fish drying grounds, and then everyone will come home with a fishy smell?" Bella asked dissatisfied.

"However, that place is also an important part of Ahti City, how can you not visit it?" Scott insisted on going, an important part of his planned expedition to the island's fisheries, and how could he give it up.

Bella viciously pulled her brother aside and whispered a warning, "Didn't you see that both Aurora and Shirley were wearing new dresses?" Do you want to make trouble, beware of me going back to complain. ”

Scott weighed for a long time, and finally relented, and said loudly: "The smell of fish in the fish drying field is very strong, let's take a quick look at it in the carriage." ”

When the carriage set off again, Scott squeezed into the carriage where Duchamp and Dietrie were, and enthusiastically introduced the fish farm to his future partner. "It's an important industry on the island, and the fish caught in the port are processed and dried here before being loaded on ships and shipped to the mainland to be sold."

Duchamp looked from afar, and saw that along the beach, there were shelves for drying fish everywhere. As the ladies said, the smell of salted fish in the air is particularly strong. After the carriage had briskly passed the area, some houses appeared in front of it, and there was even a shadow of a factory behind it. "That's the house where the fish is dried by hand, and a few houses in the distance are canneries," Scott said. ”

This area is located downwind of Ahti City, and beyond that is the barren beach. It seems that the governor was also afraid of the smell of fishy smells of his castle.

After Scott's introduction, he asked everyone in the carriage, "It's hard to get used to this smell, right?" ”

Leamor nodded: "It's a little unaccustomed, it smells dizzy." ”

Dietri and Fang immediately seized the opportunity to hit him, Dietri took a sharp breath and sighed: "On the contrary, I think the air is quite good, in addition to the fish, there is also the smell of forest and vegetables, it seems that everyone said that Ahti Island is a blessed island, and it is really not wrong." ”

Fang ruthlessly hit Li Ermu and said, "It seems that you can only stay in the imperial capital for the rest of your life, and don't leave for a single step." ”

Lilmu muttered, "You were both born by the sea. ”

Duchamp immediately mended the knife: "Oops, how can I smell fresh fruit." ”

"That's right, turn around from the island and you'll be in the orchard, and we're going to have dinner there."

The carriage moved forward again, and everyone immediately felt refreshed. Ahead, large orchards and vegetable patches appeared. The carriage went to one of the farms for a short rest, and the locals immediately guided the people to wash their hands, and brought out all kinds of fruit for the guests, and after a while, dinner was ready.
